From statements of several parties
it appears that there is considerable
amount Of counterfeit money being
placed in circulation in this city. The
conductors OF some Of the street cars
and number of the shopkeepers re-
port that they have been deceived to a
considerable extent by the showers
of the spurious coin. The counterfeits
are of the silver half and whole dollars
and are said to be very fair immita-
tions. Those who have been victim

Conduct.

Conduct.
Phil Hanley, contractor, accom-
panied by a fine, large dog, sat in the
dock OF Justice Austin's Court room
yesterday afternoon. awaiting trial for
drunkenness. 1t appeared that the
man was drunk and very abusive to-
ward the conductor in the presence of
ladies on a Temple-street cable car,
Monday afternoon at 4:30. He was
consequently arrested by Officer
Weatherman. During the trial the
dog appeared most attentive to the
proceedings, and at one time when a
witness for the city was testifying as
to some very bad words used by the
defendant the dog dropped down fiat
on the ground, as if disgusted at his
masters profanity. Justice Austin
imposed a fine of $40 upon the defend
ant, who who was willing to admit
that he had been vulgar and foul
mouthed, but would not conccle that
he was drunk.

A London correspondent quotes Sir
Charles Tupper as saying OF Mr.. O'Brien's 3
visit to Canada: One OF the advantages
which we think the British ystem has over
the American system is that both in
England and in Canada all parties treat
the executive head OF the nation as hey ond
criticism. Fiercely as controversy may
rage between the two parties they all
unite in sustaining the executive head OF
the country. 1t naturally follows that we
disapprove very strongly OF a departure
from that course by anybody coming into
the country to attack the queens repre-
sentative, and that inreference to the ques-
tions that have no relation to Canada
and Canadian affairs. At the same time
everybody deplores the fact that Mr..
O'Brien should have been made the subject
OF violence by any interference. Such g.
thing is most unusual thing for Canada,
where the freest speech on all questions is
tolerated.

of its first painting and papering and

seven years ago, my wife and have
longed for this day to come. We have
saved and 'tscrimped'' and hoped and
prayed for it,, and at last it has come.
We have paid out hundreds of dollars
in rent, and been moved and hustled
around from house to house, and place
to place, in the nomadic manner too
common among young married people
in America.
No one can know with what breath
of infinite relief I said last week to
Mrs. Dane, at the close of wearisome
moving day, "Well, my dear, thank
the fates. this is our last move."
"Well, I hope so, for goodness's
sake" said Mrs. Dane with marked
force.
And when our two cherished Brussels
carpets were being cut and slashed into
so recklessly, to fit the parlor and sit
ting room, Mrs. Dane said, gratefully.
"Well, it's the last time they'll have to
be cut, for they are down to stay now;

The home we are so happy in is not
all paid for. but we see our way clear

termination of putting roof over

much more than half the amount I
have been paying in rents.
1t is difficult to define the feeling one
has in home of ones own. There is
something in being ''landed proprie-

and adds dignity and earnestness to
life. You literally feel that you are
somebody. Life takes on new mean

to live for and work for. 1 actually
